Official Panthers - Jets Gameday Thread


Zod

Recommended Posts

Today the Panthers have a chance to get back on the playoff track. A win today would be a confidence booster going into two divisional games. A loss would be devastating and cause fans to question the resolve of this team when the pressure is on.

 

 

Where: Bank of America Stadium

When: 4:05 Kickoff

Radio: 1110 WBT

TV: CBS

Keys to Panthers Victory

 

- Open up the offense. The Panthers won't be running the ball well with the Jets stacking the box defensively. Cam must throw the ball and force the Jets defense to stay honest.

 

- Contain Geno Smith. Do not allow a repeat of a rookie mobile QB beating you with his legs and buying time. (See week 2)

 

- Blitz, Blitz, and Blitz again. Geno is not Drew Brees. He will struggle finding a target quickly enough if adequate pressure if applied.

 

 

Prediction:

 

Panthers 27

Jets 13

After last week's game, and with us hosting the Saints again next week I suppose there could be a letdown.  Other than that small possibility I see no other reason that this one would be close.  Come out strong and put them away early.

 

Panthers 27

Jets 7

 

Bonus Prediction:

 

Saints 17

Rams 23

Honestly kinda nervous about this one. It just feels weird.

And since we lost last week, all of my superstitions that caused us to win 8 straight now seem moot. Idk what to do with myself, switch it up? Or stick with the same strategy?

21-17, Jets.

    • He’s set financially for life barring complete fiscal lunacy. He has $12.3 million guaranteed. Think about that. Twelve million three hundred thousand dollars, he’ll be 28 years old when his contract is up and he’s completely forgotten about if he never plays another down in the NFL if he so chooses. Say after taxes he ‘only’ brings home $6M (fire your accountant territory) and parks $4M in a run of the mill mutual fund… good God… What I’m getting at, IF homie ain’t feeling the NFL, he has 12,300,000 reasons to take the fewest NFL edition ass kickings as possible while waiting out his very wealthy non-football future.  Obviously completely talking out of my a$$ with this… but if you hated contact, didn’t want to live with a completely wrecked body for the rest of your life and you know you’re set financially… what path would you take, assuming you’re cool with being a quitter (not calling him a quitter, I’m just playing out a scenario)? Why do so many first rounders bust? Where was he before his one year wonder if he was such a stud?  Everybody likes the dude on a personal level. How could you not? …. but I like seeing a winning product even more. He doesn’t play like his head is in the game. The Why is where the speculation lies and helps to clarify if his issues are ‘fixable’ or not. 
    • Fantasy tiers? Who gives a fug
    • Very likely that he needs another season or two to really find his groove.  It very well may not be here where he has his best season. He’s a physical standout, but he can’t seem to get his focus and mentality right. That non-catch where he didn’t get his second foot in bounds was a truly awful display of this. Every professional in this game makes that catch.  Last week, it was clear that he wasn’t playing in top gear.  Like so many young people these days, he wants success without working hard.  He wants maximum reward for minimum effort. He wants to rest on talent. But talent alone won’t cut it.  The foolishness of youth and inexperience.  He can have it all if he wants it.  Seems like he’s content to be a social media star and a forgettable football player.
